Review: If you have a prayer book, you have this already. I expected more, but it is just what it claims to be.

Summary: A very moving devotional
Review: The Book of Common Prayer is a devotional for every day of the year. It touches on a broad range of topics, often specific to the time of year. In beautiful language, it gives short but insightful devotions that really prepare you for your day. This book will never grow old!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Ancient and Out-of-Touch
Review: This is a "Prayer Book companion" that is ancient and out-of-touch with modern sensibility and approach to God. The wording is stuck in the patriarchal mode, and the view of God is as Father and as fearful lord and king. I was expecting something more in harmony with today's scholarship.

However, this said, I will add that this is a valuable addition to the library of anyone who wishes a reference to the approach of previous generations to the One.
